Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Vibrometry (Ossicular mobility in mm/s/Pa)
Optical Coherenece Tomography vibrometry measures of ossicular mobility for the umbo and incus in mm/s/Pa for 6 frequencies of 500, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 Hz
Standard audiometry--threshold measurement in dBHL
Standard pure tone and bone conduction audiometry--measurement of acoustic thresholds for air and bone conductive stimuli at 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 , 4000, 6000 and 8000 Hz
Standard tympanometry--measurement of acoustic immittance in daPa
Standard tympanometric testing of ear canal volume and middle ear immittance
